Is Edward Scissorhands a Christmas movie?
Since its release in 1990, the romantic tale between Kim (Winona Ryder) and Edward Scissorhands (Johnny Depp) has become a cult favourite. But it wasn't just the fraught romantic plotline or Edward’s snow sculptures which captured viewer's hearts.
Spearheaded by director Tim Burton, the film charmed audiences with its stellar casting, striking costumes and set designs. Initially, the director used illustration to carve out his character's personalities and looks. In fact, Depp's iconic costume was inspired by Burton's illustrations of a panic-stricken Edward with chaotic hair and blades for fingers.
Depp recently donated his Scissorhands costume to the Design Museum for its current exhibition on Burton. Have you been to see it yet?
